N.F. Railway is actively participating in the Fit India Freedom Run initiative which was launched on 14 th August by Minister of State for Youth Affairs & and Sports (Independent Charge) and Minister of State for Minority Affairs, Shri Kiren Rijiju.
Officers and Staff of NF Railway along with their families, both at Head Quarters and the Divisions are participating in this initiative on a daily basis. NFRSA (N.F. Railway Sports Association) is actively promoting the initiative.
Daily running programme is being organized by the Northeast Frontier Railway Sports Association, in which groups of N.F. Railway sportspersons are participating to spread awareness on the Fit India Freedom Run initiative, by running/walking with banners, posters.
To encourage all fellow citizens to actively participate in this initiative, Shri Sanjive Roy, General Manager, N.F. Railway in a video message which is widely circulated in social media told, “It is a great feeling working out with nature. It improves our metabolism and further increases our immunity. The idea behind the “Fit India Freedom Run” initiative under Fit India Movement by Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports is to keep ourselves fit in this pandemic situation. In fact this programme does not have any restrictions other than maintaining social distancing. One can run or walk in the morning or in the evening and extent of walk also depends on the person who can himself decide what distance he has to cover. Me, my officers, staffs and their family members in North East Frontier Railway are all joining this nationwide initiative. I am sure you will also like to join this initiative.”
